    What is this hose for?

    Fabroman got it on The Dot. The recip piston creates fluctuations of pressure and the breather is meant to relieve it however due to epa ect oil was orig spraying out in a mist/droplets hence going to the intake to burn and oil escaping not necessarily. Fumes just call it a simple pcv setup...

    Larger budget off road axles?
